One has their own Opinion, I have right to watch movies in US and India, Guess Bollywood is becoming popular because people associate themselves with the character and culture too.
If Bollywood is against some religion then why Pakistan is allowing Bollywood, I do remember Bollywood movies were banned earlier perhaps even now to certain extent.
But alas not everyone has the same opinion hence one could see Bollywood movies flooded in Black market.
 
Songs will always be part of Indian cinema.

That is how we carry forward our old ways of drama and story telling. The Ramayana, Mahabharata all have been enacted in street plays with songs and dances.People need to stop comparing western movies to Indian movies.

This is the way we are and if you feel uncool then you're getting far away from your native traits. Its about culture and you have to identify yourselves with it to be able to appreciate many nice Indian movies

You must understand that most movies are only a reflection of the society's tastes. The elite emigrant desi community abandoning Indian cinema is only expected because it is not to their taste. It is only natural. But ask any lower middle class emigrant.

I told these Pakistani off-license guys that Aishwarya Rai, Sri Devi and Deepika Padukone are beauties from my part of India. Last night I got some fruits for free.:D These guys never switch off the radios tuned into Indian music channels

Come on, who finds fault with Das Kahaniyaan, TZP, K3G, Swades, Hey Ram etc ?

There are some really wonderful movies coming out of the Indian cinema. A section of us is too Westernized to be able to perceive the beauty of Indian cinema.

What I will criticize though is the lack of originality in many scripts.

I'm new to watching Hindi cinema but I can already see it has a beautiful history and am getting very fond of it. The first time I heard a old Hindi song(dekha yeh khwaab) *fully* is when I was in a cab driven by a guy from Pakistan. He told me how melodious songs from the movie Silsila(?) was.
 
But Bollywood is pretty anti-Muslim, it's to be expected. Same as Indian society. They like to subdue the non-Brahminical groups.

Lol Bollywood is run and owned by Non brahmins and Muslims ..
Bollywood cant be anti muslim because muslims have major stakes in that industry .. from Sharukh Khan to Dawood Ibrahim .

Cmon RR .. dont drag you anti brahmin emotions ..
 
Should they be allowed to insult someone's beliefs, no
Should they be allowed to make movies like so? Well, what is it that you find insulting? One could argue that some of the Danish cartoons were insulting, but how would this be insulting? And why can't half naked women chant the name of God? Do you have a monopoly on it? You must all wear a feathers when you type my name.

Danish papers reprint Muhammad cartoon - Yahoo! News

Actually recently all the major Danish News Papers on 13 Feb 2008 printed the cartoons again without much protest world wide except in Denmark.
I wonder why ?

Compared to that a scantily clad woman singing Allah or God or my name is definately welcome.

Regards

Who is protesting about this song? No body even know about this song before the idiot Nafees who is always creating threads against India.

Anyway they can't use hindu gods in urdu songs anyway. Hindi industry is actually urdu industry.

Then blame should go to Shahrukh khan, salaman Khan, Amir Khan who rule the bollywood. You may say they are not muslim, every one has one's own opinion that should be respected too, so your's.

Some how it looks you generally do not watch bollywood movie and made opinion based on other's opinion.

There were few crap movies where Muslims were shown as terrorists, remove those then industry is not anti muslim.

You think so? I've seen plenty of hindi songs with Ram and Krishna in them.
 
i don't think much of the youth in pakistan have had a problem with this religious "thing" in bollywood movies, but I think what did piss of some people was the song with the name Ali in it. But then again, we shouldn't even be watching this stuff, right?:lol:
By the way, has there been any reaction on part of the muslims in india? what do they think?
 
Have to admit, they look more female like then what Indian wilder beasts look like on them movies.
 
What is wrong with you people posting mujra videos. I dont know about India (or its forums) but its not allowed here or in Pakistan.

Consider it as a nice warning.

They all have a good time at the movies. Strangely enough, the Hindu groups are the most vocal protesters against obscenity in movies.

Fundamentalists on either sides oppose everything they see as offensive. They have such sensibilities and insecurities about god & religion that almost everything would offend them.

But heck, bollywood has just too many fans inside Pakistan. I've met to meet a Pakistani who doesn't like bollywood in person. The ones I meet only give me recommendations. :D

Ah, what to do.

Its like the Sari isn't it? People can't make up their minds about it. Is it a hindu dress? is it Pakistani? Is it anti-Islamic? Is it obscene? Is it stylish?
 
Yes in hindi they may use ram, but huge "majority" of songs are in urdu which is why they have to use allah and not ram.

Ishwar Allah tere nam.:tongue:

Funny, many fundamentalists are so against this all gods are same business. Their very existence, livelihood and identity is threatened the moment they acknowledge speck of similarity between any two religions are acknowledged. So its understandable when Allah is bollywood songs causes takleef. Why, I'm pleased! :smokin:

How I wish it was not invented in the first place. You feel the pain of your hard work when you have to shell out so many thousands of rupees.

To each their own! :D
